Since 1858, our Prato Almond Biscuits have been baked fresh every day and carefully hand-packed, one by one, in the iconic Blue Mattei bag. Made with flour, sugar, free-range eggs, almonds and pine nuts, they contain no preservatives, animal fats or vegetable fats.
Since 1838, the Barbero family has played an important role in the history of Asti, preserving its confectionery tradition through seven generations. On 16 November 2015, Davide and his partner Federica welcomed their first son, Filippo, the youngest heir to this remarkable and truly sweet family story—one deeply rooted in tradition while constantly looking towards the future.
For our Ricciarelli, we have chosen Marabissi, a historic company from Siena that has been preserving and passing down the authentic recipe for this extraordinary delicacy for over seventy years, crafting it for Antonio Mattei as well. Founded in the heart of Siena in the years following the Second World War, Marabissi is now recognised as one of Italy's leading artisan producers of Ricciarelli, Panforte and other traditional Sienese specialties.
